Two days in a row!

I've been on a roll with knitting facecloths lately. I get like this from time to time.

Here's today's (better) photo:


feather and fan cloth

This was knit from Lily's Sugar 'n Cream sport weight yarn in "velvet print." I *love* this yarn, but I'm now having trouble finding it (just the sport weight). For years it's been available from both Herschnner's and Mary Maxim, but now both companies have only the worsted weight yarn. Which is useful, but not as delicate as the sport weight yarn. Aargh!

This is the feather and fan cloth from Fibertrends "Bathing Beauties" pattern. Like all FiberTrends'patterns, it's well-written and thought out, and a neat design to boot! I've been having lots of fun knitting it up in different yarns and playing with the stitch counts. This was my first version of the feather and fan cloth. I've knit several of the leaf lace and ribbon lace versions. Maybe I'll photograph those too ;).

Unfortunately no luck at all finding it. I think they've discontinued the sport weight. And just when I'd realized how much I liked it!
